Anything
Monica feat. Rick Ross Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As we proceed to give you what you need
As we proceed to give you what you need

Likes the morning dude
I took one look at you
And it was play and seek
You were my destiny
We the big bank boys on the boulevard
Putting all the pretty girls into pretty cars
They shall not fuck with rose pockets
Feel the honey shots when I pop it
I feel for you, vodka, rum on my arm
20 million teflon don, god bless
All the D boys on the rest
With my baby girl on my side, baby, baby

I've been looking for someone special for a long, long time
Someone that I can share my dream, someone I can call mine
And every night I'm wishing, hoping, that he's only getting closer
Cause I, oh I, gonna find you, want to know you

And I just wanna know if someone's out there
Somebody to hold, somebody who cares
I'll do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no
I'd do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no

I've been there so many times from the guys in my head
And when I find somebody new, it don't never lasts
And every night I'm wishing, hoping, that he's only getting closer
Cause I, oh I, gonna find you, want to know you when

I just wanna know if someone's out there

Somebody to hold, somebody who cares
I'll do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no
I'd do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no

I guess it was cupid
But we never do the hard, let the blood drip
Somebody call the doctor cause I'm love sick
Man, I done had it with this love shit
I'm done, just cause you make me come, don't mean that you're the one
Most dudes only good for their tongues
Fucking with the queen bee it ain't safe
This is leaving a stinging in your face

And I'm tired of being by myself
I need someone there, to give all of this love that I got
I'm open, won't you come inside?
Man, I promise that I will treat you better than right

Gotta know, is he out there some where, is he out there waiting for me, for me

Is he out there some where, is he out there waiting for me

I just wanna know if someone's out there
Somebody to hold, somebody who cares
I'll do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no
I'd do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no

I just wanna know if someone's out there
Somebody to hold, somebody who cares
I'll do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no




I'd do anything to find you (I wanna do)
I won't let you go, no, no

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Monica feat. Rick Ross's song "Anything" portray the quest for love and finding that special person. The first two lines, "As we proceed to give you what you need, Likes the morning dude," set the tone for the song. The artists are signaling to the listener that they are going to give them what they need - a song about finding love. The next few lines describe the instant connection between two people when they first meet, the attraction and the hope that the other person is the one.


The lyrics then transition into a verse from Rick Ross boasting about his wealth and power, saying he can put all the pretty girls into pretty cars and showing off his money. However, he also mentions that he is looking for someone special, someone to call his own. The chorus then repeats the message of finding that special someone and being willing to do anything to keep them.


The next verse goes back to Monica's frustration about not being able to find someone to share her life with. She mentions that she has been there before, having feelings for someone, but it never works out. However, she is still hopeful that she will find the right person for her, someone who cares for her and will hold onto her. Overall, the song is about the quest to find love and not giving up until the right one comes along.

20 million teflon don, god bless
I'm successful and I feel blessed for it

I guess it was cupid
Maybe love will finally come my way


But we never do the hard, let the blood drip

Somebody call the doctor cause I'm love sick
I'm so enamored with the idea of love that it's making me feel physically sick


Man, I done had it with this love shit
I'm fed up with the ups and downs of love


I'm done, just cause you make me come, don't mean that you're the one
Just because someone makes me feel good physically, doesn't mean they're the right person for me


Most dudes only good for their tongues
Most guys are only interested in sex


Fucking with the queen bee it ain't safe
Messing with me, a powerful woman, is dangerous


This is leaving a stinging in your face
My words are meant to hurt and teach a lesson


And I'm tired of being by myself
I'm tired of being single


I need someone there, to give all of this love that I got
I have a lot of love to give and I want to find someone to share it with


I'm open, won't you come inside?
I'm ready for a relationship and I'm inviting someone to be a part of my life


Man, I promise that I will treat you better than right
I'll treat my partner with respect and care


Gotta know, is he out there some where, is he out there waiting for me, for me
I want to know if my soulmate is out there somewhere, waiting for me
